Davies Mwila says PF will ‘listen to the people’ over deputy ministers

Patriotic Front secretary general Davies Mwila has said the ruling Party will listen to the people on the National Dialogue Forum (NDF) proposal to reintroduce Deputy Ministers.

He was speaking when he welcomed former UPND vice-president Geoffrey Bwalya Mwamba (GBM) to the Party secretariat this afternoon.

Responding to a question from journalists on whether the Party had u-turned on its position to scrap Deputy Ministers to save money, Mwila assured Zambians that the ruling party will listen and do exactly what the people will say on the matter.

“On the question of reintroducing Deputy Ministers, the Patriotic Front will listen to the people. In the meantime, NDF is sitting and we’ll wait for the process to conclude but we’ll listen to the people,” said Mwila according to a statement issued by PF media director Sunday Chanda.
